Chapter 72: The Dead Sea
The Rocky Sea is the largest saltwater lake in the Luofeng Small Union, occupying one-fifth of the entire area of the Luofeng Small Union. It is in the shape of a huge half-moon, formed by hundreds of snow and ice rivers on the Luofeng Mountains all year round, its central and southern water surface is calm, it is an important sea area for human survival, but its northern part is due to the fickle climate, hiding countless terrifying sea beasts, and is feared and far away by human beings.
The northern part of the Rocky Sea is often windless and unwavering, and the momentum is turbulent, unpredictable, the climate is extremely harsh, and the floods and sea beasts are flooded, which is called the Dead Sea, which is a land without an owner, and the only thing that dominates there is a variety of terrifying sea beasts that make people talk about their color changes.
However, the majestic fireship carried a group of fledgling beast tamers and flew towards the dead sea......
After leaving Zhenhai City, the steamship flew over a vast wilderness.
In the early spring, the wilderness is a green and yellow expanse, and occasionally some wild beasts run among the grass, and they seem so small when you look down.
At this time, it was almost noon, and under the bright sunlight, a faint blue line could be faintly seen in the distance, which was the northern sea of the Sea of Rocks. The north of the Rocky Sea is the northernmost part of the Luofeng Mountains, which is covered with snow and ice all year round, and is known as the Far North Cold Region. The rivers of ice that flow out of the cold regions of the far north converge into a turbulent sea of rocks.
In the distance, you can see the mountains towering in the wilderness, and the melting snow from them has gathered into a river, flowing in the direction of the rocky sea.
In the face of this sudden change, all the apprentices muttered nervously, and there was a buzz of discussion on the empty fireboat.
"What the hell are you doing with those old fellows?" muttered an apprentice beast trainer and looked up at the bow of the ship.
"Who knows. Another apprentice muttered, "Anyway, they won't give up if they don't play us all to death." ”
"You're afraid of death, and you still want to be an animal trainer?"
"Who the fuck is scared to death?"
As a result of their quarrel, there was a commotion in the crowd. At this time, the elder of the B group shouted loudly: "Silence!!"
The chaotic crowd gradually quieted down.
"Elder Yan, what the hell is going on?" the elder of the B group whispered to the leader of the group standing beside him, Yan Xiao.
However, even Yan Xiao didn't know what was going on with this qiē. He shook his head slightly, turned his head to look at the first cabin in front of him, and said with a solemn face: "Perhaps, a few masters have temporarily changed the rules. ”
"Such a big deal, just change it?" argued an apprentice who was very close to Yan Xiao.
Yan Xiao glanced at the apprentice and shouted in a deep voice, "The decisions of several heads still need you to intervene?"
"The apprentice didn't dare. The apprentice immediately lowered his head. The other beast taming apprentices didn't dare to say more.
It didn't take long for the fireship to fall silent, and all the apprentices fell into restless silence......
The sky-flying fireship sped quickly over the sky, leaving behind beautiful strings of clouds and smoke. It flew very fast, and in a few hours, it had flown thousands of miles, directly through the wilderness, into the northern sea of the Rocky Sea.
The shadow of the sun is skewed to the west, and the originally clear sky dome gradually condenses into patches of clouds and smoke. It didn't take long for the sun to be obscured by clouds and smoke, and it took on a vague posture.
The temperature dropped sharply, and a cold wind howled through. On the vast sea, there are occasional huge pieces of ice drifting. A solitary, hideous cliff stands solemnly on the sea, like the bones of a giant beast.
The waves in the gloomy sea are turbulent, and from time to time there will be some huge black whirlpools, I don't know if some kind of sea beast has created a zào, or if it is a submarine reef formation.
"We're about to get to the Dead Sea. Huo Jing stood solemnly on the side of the ship, overlooking the Yiqiē below.
Although he didn't know what kind of decision those leaders made, the sinister side of this place had begun to emerge, which made him feel faintly uneasy.
Ye Qingcheng stood beside Huo Jing, looking at an island cliff in the sea below, a sea monster that looked like a hideous monitor lizard, standing on the top of the island cliff like a sculpture, staring at the fireship on the sky with its calm eyes.
"I have a hunch. Ye Qingcheng said.
"It won't be so sloppy. Huo Jing guessed Ye Qingcheng's guess, he shook his head, and said, "After all, there are not many of us who have the ability to participate in the last assessment, and if we send everyone over directly, it is impossible for many of us to come back alive." ”
"The elders have emphasized many times before that beast worship warfare is more cruel than the battlefield. Ye Qingcheng frowned, and there was both nervousness and an inexplicable excitement in his heart, and said: "Besides, there is only one piece of the beast taming crest, what else is impossible?"
After another half an hour, the apprentices on the fireship, seeing an iconic skeleton below, finally couldn't sit still, and once again made a noise.
I saw that on the cold sea below, a huge skeleton hundreds of feet high appeared - the corpse of the Zhenhai ape. It died more than a thousand years ago, and its flesh and fur have long since decayed, but its huge skeleton still stands proudly like a rock. It stood on a small island, clawing and screaming. Its skeleton was blue-black, its fangs and claws were still as sharp as when it was alive, and its thick bones were harder than goldstone, showing no signs of weathering.
It was an Earth Demon-level Ancient Town Sea Ape, and when it was alive, it was the peak of the Sixth Order, and it was the overlord of the Dead Sea at that time. Later, it was killed here by the Snow Emperor of the Yun Clan's Legion, Split Wind. More than a thousand years later, even if only bones remain, it still has a terrifying and terrifying aura.
It was hard for these apprentices to imagine how devastating such a fierce earth demon would be when he was alive. However, there are also a small number of apprentices who are enthusiastic about watching it, because once they grow to the point where they can conquer this level of allied beasts, they will forever be famous in history!
Seeing the corpse of this terrifying and terrifying Zhenhai ape means that you are about to enter the Dead Sea, that is, the northernmost sea area of the Rocky Sea.
By this time, it was already dark. On the northern sky, gloomy and strange dark clouds condensed. The clouds were like mountains hanging down from the sky, and it seemed that they could fall down at any moment. Thunder and lightning were like hidden dragons, flickering on the upside-down cloud peaks from time to time. The sea below was eerily calm, with a cold wind howling in the air, but there were no waves on the sea. On the contrary, there are many grotesque whirlpools, quietly derived and swirling silently.
In the western sky, a blur of clouds appeared. Although the deep blue water seems calm, no one knows how many terrifying deep-water beasts are hidden underneath. A qiē seems silent and eerie.
Ye Qingcheng stared solemnly at the lightning bolts on the northern sky dome, and said uneasily: "Is thunder and lightning frequent in the Dead Sea?"
